How many points are on the San Jiao meridian?

The San Jiao meridian, also known as the Triple Warmer or Triple Burner meridian in Traditional Chinese Medicine, comprises 23 points. Each of these points has specific therapeutic uses and is involved in the regulation of various physiological functions associated with the triple warmer system, which encompasses the upper, middle, and lower parts of the body and is essential for maintaining the body's energy balance and overall health.

In the context of acupoint therapy, understanding the number of points on each meridian is crucial for practitioners, as this knowledge aids in selecting the appropriate points for treatment and ensuring a comprehensive approach to patient care. The San Jiao meridian’s points are distributed along the arm and chest, connecting to various organs and systems, thus highlighting its importance in acupuncture and other traditional practices.
